Sang

Famous quotes containing the word sang:

    Calico Pie,
    The little Birds fly
    Down to the calico tree,
    Their wings were blue,
    And they sang “Tilly-loo!”
    Till away they flew—
    And they never came back to me!
    Edward Lear (1812–1888)

    Won’t you play a simple melody
    Like my mother sang to me—
    One with good old fashioned harmony.
    Play a simple melody.
    Irving Berlin (1888–1989)

    She sang a song that sounds like life; I mean it was sad. Délira knew no other types of songs. She didn’t sing loud, and the song had no words. It was sung with closed lips and it stayed down in one’s throat.... Life is what taught them, these Negresses, to sing as if they were choking back sobs. It is a song that always ends with a beginning anew because this song is the picture of misery, and tell me, does misery ever end?
    Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)
